[ okay. she can do this. feelings made real, poured into an object, that's like her life story at the moment. so she channels positive vibes as hard as she can and goes. ]
[ it might not work. it might not work the first few handful of times she tries it— and that’s perfectly normal! she has falco’s support, though, and he’ll be sure to keep rooting her on to avoid burnout. closer to the tenth or so shot, ahiru should be getting a reaction: the beetles pause for only about three seconds before either returning to their battle posts, or . . .
[ those beetles are at her. gently, falco attempts to lead them away as they buzzed about. eventually, they give up and go separate ways. ]
Just don’t give up, and practice a lot. [ again, it took a whole month of constant practice from falco to get it working, and even then, he runs the risk of mishaps. ] Just be careful not to use them on people, soon. Coming after you instead of calming down . . . Could happen, but only if you do it wrong.

Why don’t we practice together? Every day, same spot.
